About Mechanics
A mechanic services, repairs and maintains cars, vans and other vehicles - from routine oil changes and brake pads to diagnostics, MOT preparation and engine work.
A good local mechanic who knows your car and gives you a straight answer is one of the hardest things to find and one of the most valuable when you do.
Check they are registered with a recognised scheme such as the Good Garage Scheme or Motor Ombudsman and ask for a written estimate before any work begins.

About Edzell
Edzell is a well-kept village at the mouth of Glen Esk, about five miles north of Brechin, planned in the 19th century by the Dalhousie estate and notable for its wide, tree-lined main street.
Edzell Castle, a 16th-century ruin managed by Historic Environment Scotland, is a short walk from the village and is particularly known for its Renaissance pleasance - one of the finest formal garden enclosures of its period in Scotland.
The village is a gateway to Glen Esk, the most easterly and least visited of the Angus glens, offering walking and cycling through remote upland scenery reaching towards the Cairngorms.
About Angus
Angus is a council area on the east coast of Scotland, stretching from the North Sea shoreline inland through the fertile Strathmore valley to the high ground of the Angus Glens and the fringes of the Cairngorms.
Forfar is the county town and administrative centre, while Arbroath on the coast is the largest settlement - a town with deep historical significance as the place where the Declaration of Arbroath was signed in 1320.
The area divides naturally into three bands: the coastal strip with its harbours, beaches and golf links; the broad agricultural plain of Strathmore running through the middle; and the Highland glens - Clova, Prosen, Isla, Esk and Lethnot - that reach northward into the mountains.
Angus has a strong identity shaped by farming, fishing and food - the Arbroath smokie and the Forfar bridie are both nationally recognised and the soft fruit industry across the Strathmore valley has been a mainstay for generations.
Transport links include the main east coast rail line serving Arbroath, Carnoustie and Montrose, the A90 dual carriageway connecting Dundee to Aberdeen and a network of rural roads that reach into some of the most scenic and least-visited parts of Highland Scotland.
